About Off-Ramp®

Off-Ramp ® is a lively weekly look at Southern California through the eyes and ears of radio veteran John Rabe. News, arts, home, life... covering everything that makes life here exciting, enjoyable, and interesting.

In Newport Beach at the Orange County Museum of Art there's a new group show: the California Pacific Triennial, focusing on artists who live and work in and around the Pacific Ocean. You've already heard from curator Dan Cameron and installation artist Danial Nord.

Off-Ramp Producer Kevin Ferguson also talked with San Francisco painter John Bankston. Bankston creates massive, novelistic paintings drawing from fantasy, autobiography, coloring books. Take a listen, and if you want, find out even more about Bankston in this video produced by Georgia Pacific's Watching Hands project:
